|
I'm holdin' on a rope
|
Got me ten feet off the ground
|
And I'm hearin' what your sayin'
|
But I just can't make a sound
|
You tell me that you need me
|
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
|
Tell me that you're sorry
|
Didn't think I'd turn around
|
Its too late
|
|
[Lil Wayne:]
|
OK, I'm talkin' about a
|
Good Girl Gone Bad
|
Crooked World, wrong path
|
Right Mom, wrong dad
|
|
I sing this song mad but not mad enough to shoot you
|
But it just eats me up like some bbq from Luther's
|
In the morning with the boosters
|
On the corner with the boosters
|
And she's the fresh cut and they're on her like sutures
|
And I wanna talk to her
|
But her momma has to school her
|
I wanna see her better
|
She's the weather of my future
|
|
I don't wanna see another hurricane
|
Baby you can kill the pain
|
If you just let me explain
|
Trust me I know what I'm sayin'
|
You will end up on the track of an oncoming train
|
Stuck in the passenger seat
|
Trying do the fast lane
|
|
[Bun B:]
|
Well once upon a time there was a mom and a dad
|
Who on the outside had everything people wished they had
|
A beautiful daughter two story house two car garage
|
And a white picket fence wrapped around the front yard
|
|
See daddy was a doctor
|
And mommy was a banker
|
Mommy's job got outsourced
|
So now mommy's drinker
|
|
Daddy had a malpractice suit
|
Now he's a snorter
|
And all this shits takin' place
|
right in front of their daughter
|
She says, ˇ°Daddy what's wrong?ˇ±
|
But he's just too high
|
ˇ°Mommy what we gon' do?ˇ±
|
She just get drunk and cry
|
Caught in the middle of two wrongs trying to do right
|
Looking for answers alone in the darkness of night
|
They say...
|
|
I'm holdin' on a rope
|
Got me ten feet off the ground
|
And I'm hearin what your sayin'
|
But i just can't make a sound
|
You tell me that you need me
|
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
|
Tell me that you're sorry
|
Didn't think I'd turn around
|
You say that it's too late to apologize
|
It's too late
|
I said it's too late to apologize
|
it's too late
|
